JERUSALEM — The troubled
government of Prime Minister
Menachem Begin obeyed a Su
preme Court order Thursday and
decided to relocate an illegal Jewish
settlement on public land in the oc
cupied West Bank of Jordan.
The cabinet, in a special session
that ran more than five hours, ruled
out any attempt to draft legislation
to circumvent the courts on the ex
plosive settlement issue or legisla
tion to prohibit Arab landowners
from filing complaints on land sei
zures.
The decision didn’t come as a
surprise since the cabinet was not
expected to disobey the court. But
the beleaguered government braced
for stiff opposition to its decision
from the radical group of religious
zealots known as Gush Emunim.
In Tel Aviv a bomb apparently
planted by Palestinian guerrillas ex
ploded in the city’s central bus ter
minal Thursday, killing one man.
The bomb was the first to result in a
death since Sept. 19, when a power
ful bomb set in a Jerusalem mall
killed one person and wounded 41
others, although several bombs
have exploded throughout the coun
try in recent months.
Begin, facing one of the worst
political crises in his 28 months in
power, postponed for a maximum of
10 days any cabinet discussion of an
overall plan for Jewish settlement in
the occupied areas this year.
Cabinet secretary Arye Naor said.
He said the Cabinet decided to
relocate the settlement of Elom
Moreh, ordered dismantled by the
Supreme Court, and to empower its
defense committee to choose a new
site for it in the same area of the
northern west bank region Israel
calls Samaria.
Education Minister Zvulun
Hammer, a leader of the National
Religious Party which backs the set
tlement drive, appeared dissatisfied
with the outcome of the meeting
and said, “The big battle has again
been postponed.’’
Agriculture Minister Ariel Sha
ron, who has threatened to resign if
Elon Moreh is dismantled, said he
will boycott the meeting of the de
fense committee to dramatize his
opposition to the relocation of the
settlement.
“There was no doub

debate and no other i
position was made butt

claims that she spent the night with
John Tate,” he said. “Her passport
had expired and she was charged
under the immigration act as would
anyone else whose passport had ex
pired.”
The 24-year-old model told two
Sunday newspapers last week she
spent “a night of passion” with the
black American boxer after he won
the world title in Pretoria two weeks
ago.
Kornfeld, who was hospitalized
one night for undisclosed reasons
after giving the interviews, said she
fell in love with the husky boxer and
hoped he would send for her.
“I am sick of this country,” she
said. “I want to go to Big John Tate
in Knoxville (Tenn.),” she said.
Tate’s manager Ace Miller called
the model “just another broad” and
fight promoter Bob Arum denied
that she spent the night with the
boxer who was sedated after the
bout.

Exploration ship, tanker ablaze
Soviet ships collide in Bal
United Press International
COPENHAGEN, Denmark — A Soviet polar
exploration ship collided with a Soviet tanker in the
Baltic Sea Thursday, setting both ships ablaze and
leaving one dead and two severely burned.
Crew members and scientists, seven of them
women, leapt from the fiercely burning exploration
ship Olenick, which was carrying large amounts of
fuel and oxygen. It burst into flames following the
collision with the 15,090-ton tanker General
Shkodunovich on a stormy stretch of sea off De
nmark.
One member of the crew of the 14,185-ton
Olenick died and two were badly burned. Four men
are still missing.
Several ships including a Swedish ferry aided in a
rescue operation, plucking the men from the icy sea
in foggy and stormy conditions.
The General Shkodunovich, which has a cargo of
molasses, was not badly damaged in the collision
and continued to the Danish port of Abenra. Its
home port is Novorossiysk.
